If I was looking to get a Surface, would it be better to get a 32 or 64 GB version?

32GB: ?479

64GB: ?559

I haven't owned a tablet before, let alone a Windows 8 device. My current phone is a Galaxy Nexus, currently with ~8GB free (out of 13 usable).

I rarely watch movies or listen to music on my phone and am happy not having my entire movie catalogue on the tablet.

My first thoughts was bigger would be better but I don't know if it's really worth the money when I am more than likely not going to use it. I guess it depends how long I expect it to last as I expect apps will only get bigger.

I would go for the 32gig Surface, I dont think ?80+ for an extra 32gig of space is worth it. The majority of the apps and games on the Windows store are small. I dont think your going to be filling it up the internal storage with app installs anytime soon, If you want to store a lot of media on it then just use an SD card.

Unless you're installing apps excessively, you won't be filling up 15 GB worth. For files it's much cheaper to buy a microSD card separately. I got the 32GB and i still have 11GB free so haven't even had to get an SD card even.
